That's what I'm thinking as well. My wife and kids also think I should get it taken care of. It is frwaking them out that I was told I should wait a bit.

I would not wait. One thing worth doing is to get a genetic assessment of the aggressiveness of your cancer. it is based on outcomes and genetic profiles of thousands of prior cases. It is called Prolaris and you can find details on the Myriad Genetics web site. The read-out is on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being benign. My number was 5 which accelerated my surgery decision. Good luck!
